After with new sofas. And Toby.

Before

So.....what do you do with an enormous stone fireplace and flanking bookcases? And I do mean enormous! The fireplace is at least 20 feet high! I found a beautiful clock in the mountains of western North Carolina and some amazing accessories and called my wonderful friend Luke Anderson. Together, we rearranged the shelves....and by together, I mean that he mostly did it while I sat on the sofa and sipped a julep. Giving the room a focal point and clearing out the clutter changed the entire feel of the room. And we had so much fun.

Very cool initial canvas painted by RJ Powell. Just let me know if you'd like one with your initial and I will let him know.

The only known photo of Luke and me. At this time.....

"Hi, Deb-

Just wanted to say how valuable you are in the design process. When I think of how many hours I have wasted of my time running here and there- only to be unsure of my choices, I have come to realize what a value you are. Your attention to beautiful detail gives me the assurance that my project will always reflect timeless good taste the first time around. Many Thanks! "

"Debra Paessler Designs has done a wonderful job for me on many projects, some smaller and more large-scale. She has designed tile for a major bathroom renovation, transformed our back porch form plain to impressive, supervised a kitchen renovation, helped us to choose many upholstery and paint colors, and helped to frame and hang numerous pictures. She has a team of skilled and reliable people to help her work her magic. She is consistently a pleasure to work with, and I will hire her for any interior design job I need."

"This project, a complete renovation of our kitchen and den is the second one Debra has worked on with us. The first was a beautiful renovation of a bedroom, bath, and a new airy sunroom. Her first step is to ascertain what will go well with your home, your basic taste, and your budget. She is very creative, has an excellent sense of color and style and pland the project down to the last detail. She does the research necessary to present you with choices that you are comfortable with - from the small table to the cabinets and fixtures. Contractors respect her judgement and she makes certain that they turn up on time and do excellent work. In all she is very qualified in her field, takes into account the angst that the home owner feels during the renovation to their home, and is very pleasant to work with. We highly recommend her to make your home more beautiful.
